Setting up

When selecting a suitable place for the TV, be sure that no bright light or sunlight falls on the screen. Light may cause reflections and impair the brilliance of the image.

The best viewing distance is five times the picture tube diagonal, e.g. about 3.5 m for TV sets with a 70 cm screen.

5x cm

TV sets require adequate ventilation. The ventilation slots at the rear of the set should therefore never be covered by curtains, doilies, newspapers or similar objects. Likewise, all slots at the bottom of the set must be freely accessible so that the intake of air is not impaired in any way

Do not set up the TV near a radiator as this would impair adequate cooling.

Do not place

-burning candles or

-flower vases filled with water on top of the TV set.

Hot wax and liquids destroy the electrical components and jeopardize the electrical safety of the set

If you place the set in a wall unit, leave sufficient space on all sides so that the air can circulate freely.

Your TV set is intended for use in dry rooms. If you wish to use it occasionally outdoors, be sure to protect it against any kind of moisture (rain, splashes, dew, etc.).

Connecting the aerial

Standard SAT and terrestrial station aerial sockets are fitted at the rear of the TV.

Thunderstorms represent a danger for all electrical appliances! If lightning strikes the power line or the aerial, the TV may be dama- ged even if it is switched off. Therefore, always unplug the mains lead AND aerial during thunderstorms. If the TV is not going to be used for an extended period of time, for instance when on holiday, then disconnect the set both from the mains and the aerial.

External loudspeakers

The sockets for connection of external loudspeakers are located on the rear of the TV set and are identified by the symbols . The impedance of the external speakers must not be less than 4 Ohms. When external speakersare plugged in, the internal speakers on the front of the TV set are switched off. The subwoofer on the back of the TV set remains on.

Mains voltage

Plug the mains lead into a wall outlet. The TV set is equipped for 230 V ac.
